cannot see that pen not given if thats Ederson instead of Neuer.

i said that last night, thats why saliba made that challenge that got given as a pen because in the pl that doesnt get given if you play in red, they are so entitled that when a game is reffed fairly they see it as unfair because to them 90% of decisions in their favour is fair reffing.

Look at this bollocks on Talkshite's YouTube site... two English teams playing in the CL Quarter Finals... yet for us, the only videos uploaded are all negative – two where they actually talk to Real Madrid fans... fucking pathetic!

Looking forward to Lego heads explanation on why his plan to stop Kane from scoring didn't work out and I'm sure those Real Madrid fans will have accepted last night's draw with their usual impartial humility.

Back page headlines in Belfast Telegraph this morning.
"City on a knife edge after draw in Real thriller"
Really?
Andy Hampson is the journalist from NW England

I will find out today at work as three of them went last night.
I don't know how but they had tickets in the city section

McMinimum telling us how great it is play in that stadium when he has never played in the new place.

Real Madrid: Lunin (5), Carvajal (6), Tchouameni (6), Rudiger (7), Mendy (6), Valverde (7), Kroos (6), Camavinga (7), Bellingham (6), Vinicius Jnr (8), Rodrygo (7).

Total 71

Man City: Ortega (6), Akanji (5), Gvardiol (7), Dias (6), Stones (6), Rodri (6), Kovacic (6), Silva (7), Foden (8), Haaland (6), Grealish (6).

Total 69 - edited lol

We went to Madrid, the world's biggest team, the 14 time champions and based on sly sports ratings above were 2nd best and got a 3-3 draw.

Always pandering. Always lying.

Bellingham and Grealish both 6???

Michael Owen is a great cure for insomnia

The only pundit to make watching paint dry a better option than listening to him

 

[Brendan110_0]

Lots of reporters didn't see the Real vs City game, can tell as they think Real dominated the first half. Plenty of long range efforts that never troubled Orteg

More negative headlines, this time from Ladyman. And the Daily United want people to pay (m+) to read that shit.

When will I actually see a positive headline and article about City drawing 3-3 away at Real Madrid?

If that was Liverpool or United(ha!), there would numerous positive articles about the performance and the result.

Sloppy, slow, careless….

Ladyboy sees the game through a redtop lens, can't make himself praise a good performance from City, here's last years headline at the same point

 

[Centurions]

The commetators on TNT maintain their professionalism as Real Madrid score against City

I couldn't get a decent stream last night and reverted to listening to audio only on City's website, in some ways I'm quite glad.

 

[Centurions]

Saka the little diver! All his thinking in that situation is to run with the ball and do the splits to cheat for a pen! If that was Foden it be skip pass the goalie and score a tap in!

You could photoshop Salah's head on Saka's body and struggle to tell the difference. Saka must have him on a loop before games.

Just his usual nonsense……

I watched a good stream on VIP.... with Portuguese commentary. I started off with English, but after Bernardo's goal I couldn't bear the sound of the English commentator sobbing anymore.

 

[willipp]

You have to laugh. Talksport news after wall to wall coverage of Arsenal reported Pep was happy with a point after a 3-3 draw.

Apart from the two that troubled him to the extent they ended up in the net?
We were clearly 2nd best in the 1st half, Pep said we lacked composure and we needed to adapt to chaos. He actually said that had we played this game 4 years ago based on the 1st half we would have lost 4-1 or 5-1.

 

[deano ou812]

It’s all deliberate from the media,play down City big up the opponents and if any other English club playing give them extra coverage and being more positive regardless the result,it’s like the nazi propaganda machine and who was it,Joseph Goebbels the more you tell a lie it eventually becomes the truth..

First sentence is bollocks, there’s no blame attached to Ortega, the first wasn’t even on target and the second was going into his hands, dear me some people.

 

[madloaf]

Bellingham and Grealish both 6???

You can't make head nor tail of that scoring other than know that an English team went to Madrid and scored 3 goals and the average score per player was 6.1. We're judged by a different standard.

 

[WNRH]

McMinimum telling us how great it is play in that stadium when he has never played in the new place.

It’s the same ground.

I think Pep was more referring to how much we've grown in this competition, He was giving us a compliment more than anything, We aren't that team anymore that folds in the Champions League.

As for the goals you've mentioned, I genuinely can't believe you're blaming Ortega for both goals, One shot was going wide and took a massive deflection into his far post, The other was literally going straight to him on my for it took a touch off Akanji.

Maybe he should of done a cartwheel and saved Valverde effort also...

Ladyman is incapable of being impartial.
